The C2xGetThis-functions can be used to access the payload of the highest interpretable protocol. The callback must have the following signature: 
void <OnC2xPacket> ( long channel, long dir, long radioChannel, long signalStrength, long signalQuality, long packet )

void OnC2xPacket( long channel, long dir, long radioChannel, long signalStrength, long signalQuality, long packet )
{
  byte rx_data[1500];
  byte rx_packet[1500];
  long rx_length;
  long rx_headerLength;

  rx_headerLength = C2xGetTokenData(packet, "wlan", "header", elCount(rx_packet), rx_packet);
  // without Ethernet header
  rx_length = C2xGetTokenData(packet, "eth", "data", elCount(rx_data), rx_data);
  write ("rx_headerLength: %d", rx_headerLength);
  write ("rx_dataLength: %d", rx_length);
  memcpy_off(rx_packet, rx_headerLength, rx_data, 0, rx_length);
  rx_length += rx_headerLength;
  // Always use rx_length to access rx_packet!
  write ("rx_length: %d", rx_length);
